"Release the Kraken"

Ginni Thomas attended Trump’s “Stop the Steal” rally on Jan. 6 and conspired with Trump’s inner circle to overturn the election results.

Ginni Thomas, wife of conservative Supreme Court Justice Thomas, exchanged 29 text messages with Trump's Chief of Staff Mark Meadows in an attempt to overturn the 2020 election. Thomas is known for her work with ultra conservative Christian-right activists. Her messages to Meadows echoed bizarre rightwing conspiracy theories of a holy crusade and urged him to overturn the election: "Make a plan. Release the Kraken."
